Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: What are your thoughts on Mammoth Energy Service (TUSK)? Although it is a young American oilfield service provider it seems to be doing the right thing in vertically integrating their operations so they can provide frack sand from their own mines and pressure pump it into wells with their own equipment and even cement the well. Is this are a smart idea or should smaller companies just try to concentrate on one part of the horizontal/fracking boom.

Q: Hi 5i:
A previous question asked by Joseph today about the newly issued Series 21 Preferred Shares. I have that issue and it is currently listed as PPL.PF.A with my Scotia iTrade account. Hope this helps.
A previous question asked by Roy today, you listed PPL.PR.U as a minimum preferred to consider. That symbol I cannot find. Do you know what issue you are referring to?
Thanks so much.

Q: I currently hold these 3 in a us tfsa among a few others, and im looking to add to one of the 3 listed. BA recently announced 20% dividend increase and 18b buyback program, which seems very positive. NVDA also seem like a good time to add with recent pull back to sub 200s with no fundamental change. Then V is just doing what its been doing for years and years with slow and steady climb. Which would you preferred to add to and why?

CRA has announced $5500 contribution limit for 2018, when does it take effect? Is it immediate on jan. 1?

Q: The Globe Investor has the target price on PBH as $106.50 based on analysts polled by Zacks Investment Research (6 month time horizon, updated daily). On BNN yesterday, the caller asked for the street consensus target, which was $116.50. Pretty large difference = $10. Is it simply the 6 month target price vs a 12 month target price? Thanks...Steve

Q: Gents (time to add a Lady?) Would this be a reasonable addition to a balanced rrsp portfolio for a bit of aggressive yield at these depressed levels - could you quantify the return of capital that would reduce cost base ie if held for say 2 years and the share price stays flat what erosion in share value would an investor who sells at that point incur - thank you - Ken

Q: There is consistent insider buying in CBL but it seems to be pretty much limited, at least very recently, to two parties: Joseph Lewis and Braslyn Ltd. Do you know if Braslyn is controlled by Lewis (the purchases seem to mirror each other)?
Is there anything to infer from this other than a positive outlook from at least one insider?
